Ms. Cook holds two executive level roles consecutively as President of Ignite Funding and CEO of Preferred Trust Company. As the President of Ignite Funding since April 2011, Ms. Cook brings more than 15 years of experience specializing in private lending and is a licensed Mortgage Broker with the Nevada Mortgage Lending Division and Arizona Department of Financial Institutions.
As Chief Executive Officer of Preferred Trust Company, a licensed retail trust company that holds custody of alternative assets on behalf of IRA account owners, she oversees all functions within the business to include operations, compliance, accounting, marketing/sales, and client relations. Ms. Cook was approached in August of 2014 by the owners of the company and asked if she would consider the dual capacity role given her proven track record. Given the synergistic approach of the two companies she took on the challenge. It was that challenge that began a complete overhaul of the financial, operational, and regulatory performance of the company. In this role, Ms. Cook is a certified Self-Directed IRA Professional.
